(News Release) The Results of Radioactive Material Monitoring of the Surface Water Bodies within Miyagi Prefecture (April-June Samples)

Friday, August 10, 2012 Water Environment Division, Environment Management Bureau, Ministry of the Environment Direct line: 03-5521-8316 Switchboard: 03-3581-3351 Director: Tadashi Kitamura (ext. 6610) Deputy Director: Tetsuo Furuta (ext. 6614) Coordinator: Katsuhiko Sato (ext. 6628)

In accordance with the Comprehensive Radiation Monitoring Plan determined by the Monitoring Coordination Meeting, the Ministry of the Environment (MOE) is continuing to monitor radioactive materials in water environments (surface water bodies (rivers, lakes, headwaters, and coasts), etc.). Samples taken from the surface water bodies of Miyagi Prefecture during the period of April 28-June 29, 2012 have been measured as part of MOE’s efforts to monitor radioactive materials; the results have recently been compiled and are released here. * The monitoring results of radioactive materials in surface water bodies carried out to date can be found at the following web page: http://www.env.go.jp/jishin/rmp.html#monitoring

1. Survey Overview (1) Survey Locations 59 environmental reference points, etc. in the surface water bodies within Miyagi Prefecture (Rivers: 43 locations, Lakes: 16 locations)

(2) Survey Method ・ Measurement of concentrations of radioactive materials (radioactive cesium (Cs-134 and Cs-137), etc.) in water and sediment ・ Measurement of concentrations of radioactive materials and spatial dose-rate in soil in the surrounding environment of water and sediment sample collection points (river terraces, etc.)

2. Outline of Results (* denotes the results of the previous study (January-February)) (1) Water Quality (Lower detection limit: 1Bq/L) (Rivers) Cs-134: Not detectable (ND)-3Bq/L Cs-137: ND-4Bq/L (*ND at any location) (Lakes and headwaters) Cs-134, Cs-137: ND at any location (*ND at any location)

Specification and Standards for Food, Food Additives, etc. in accordance with the Food Sanitation Act (Drinking Water) (Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare Public Notice No.130, March 15, 2012) Radioactive cesium (total for Cs-134+Cs-137): 10Bq/kg

Target value for radioactive materials in tap water (management target for water supply facilities) (March 5, 2012; 0305 Notice No.1 from the Director of the Water Supply Division, Health Service Bureau, Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare) Radioactive cesium (total for Cs-134+Cs-137): 10Bq/kg

(2) Sediment (Lower detection limit: 10Bq/kg (dried mud)) (Rivers) Cs-134: ND-1,400Bq/kg (dried mud) Cs-137: ND-2,000Bq/kg (dried mud) (*Cs-134: 12-1,100Bq/kg (dried mud)) (*Cs-137: 24-1,600Bq/kg (dried mud))

(Lakes and headwaters) Cs-134: ND-1,200Bq/kg (dried mud) Cs-137: 12-1,800Bq/kg (dried mud) (*Cs-134: 130-1,200Bq/kg (dried mud)) (*Cs-137: 220-1,800Bq/kg (dried mud))

(3) Surrounding Environment (Lower detection limit: 10Bq/kg (dry)) (Rivers) Cs-134: 15-2,300Bq/kg (dry) Cs-137: 27-3,400Bq/kg (dry) (*Cs-134: 45-1,600Bq/kg (dry)) (*Cs-137: 61-2,200Bq/kg (dry)) Spatial dose: 0.05-0.42μSv/h

(Lakes and headwaters) Cs-134: 53-1,700Bq/kg (dry) Cs-137: 94-2,700Bq/kg (dry) (*Cs-134: 100-1,600Bq/kg (dry)) (*Cs-137: 130-2,300Bq/kg (dry)) Spatial dose: 0.03-0.27μSv/h

(Annex for details) (Map attached)

Future Plans In coordination with relevant organizations, MOE intends to continue to measure radioactive materials in water, sediment, etc. in rivers, lakes, etc. in Fukushima Prefecture, its neighboring prefectures, etc.
